L-2-(N-Pteroyl)amino-3-(N-phosphonoacetyl)aminopropanoic acid was synthesized as an analogue of the putative y-phosphorylated intermediate in the enzyme-catalyzed γ-glutamation of folic acid by folylpolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS). N-(Benzyloxycarbonyl)-L-aspartic acid was converted in four steps to methyl L-2-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl)amino-3-aminopropanoate, and the latter was allowed to react with p-nitrophenyl dimethoxyphosphonoacetate to obtain methyl L-2-(N-benzyloxycarbonylamino)- 3-(N-dimethoxyphosphonoacetyl)aminopropanoate. After catalytic hydrogenation, the resulting amine was coupled to N 10 -formylpteroic acid via the mixed carboxylic-carbonic anhydride method, and the three ester groups were removed by sequential treatment with Me 3 SiBr in DMF and NaOH in DMSO. When the last step was performed only with NaOH/DMSO, one of the phosphonate esters remained intact, giving L-2-(N -pteroyl )amino-3 -(N -monOInethoxyphosphonoacetyl )aminopropanoic acid. Also synthesized as a potential FPGS inhibitor was N α -(4-amino-4-deoxy-N 10 -methylpteroyl)-N ε -phosphonoacetyl- L-Iysine. The ability of these phosphonoacetyl derivatives to inhibit catalytic addition of L-glutamic acid to folic acid proved to be very low, suggesting that replacement of the CH 2 C(=O)OP(=O)(OH) 2  moiety by NHC(=O)CH 2 P(=O)(OH) 2  may place the terminal phosphonyl group in an unfavorable spatial orientation for binding to the enzyme.
